RAID 0 Disk config.

[Marc Hoppins]

Thanks, Thomas.

Another disk question if I may, does FAI test for existing partitions on the target disk?  I think the reason I was getting failures is that the target probably had partitions created by a previous, failed FAI.

Hi Marc,

without checking I guess our tool does not support raw disks for this setup. But you  can use a size of 1G- which means create a partition with a size of at least 1Gbytes but maximize the partition with no limit. That means the partition will get the whole size of the disk.
This may be similar to what you want. It looks likes this:

disk_config /dev/sda fstabkey:uuid align-at:1M primary - 1G-  -  -  -


Then you can use the partitions to create your raid0.
